AMIT KUMAR commented on CASSANDRA-7838:
---------------------------------------
I looked up sigar code:
https://github.com/hyperic/sigar/blob/189843858ecd8da7fb94a6b274269877c2416b3a/src/sigar.c#L520
You are right -it checks the file system type to determine if the file system
is networked or not, so it will not find SAN or EBS, the log info is of limited
value, but it will emit a warning about NFS/SMB etc. -that does seem to provide
some value but not address this ticket's intention.
We had talked about other things that could be done with SIGAR -like getting
the load information and emitting a warning when the system load is high,
keeping some history about read and write queues of the disk and warn when
things are going south.
I would be happy to do some more digging and see where we can go with this.

> It would be nice on start-up to use this to warn users if they are running
> with settings that will make them sad, like Network drive or EBS on Ec2.
